The Lesbian ‘Gay Girl’ Love Tour

As someone who is committed to helping women take the crazy out of dating, I always ask lesbians to take a […]

Why Lesbians are at Risk for Substance Abuse

Why Lesbians are at Risk for Substance Abuse

In my private practice, I often work with lesbians who have or still struggle with substance abuse. Some are newly sober, some have a hard time staying sober and many have been sober for a long time.

The Sex That Dare Not Speak Its Name?

The Sex That Dare Not Speak Its Name?

Brave new world of e-publishing: We changed the title of our book. Not while we were writing it, not prior to publication, not before anyone had caught sight of the original title and cover. The book had been out in the world and circulating, physically and electronically; we’d read it from it at public events, […]

Eat, Pray, Love – Lesbian!

Eat, Pray, Love – Lesbian!

Being lesbian is a religion. It’s feast, fast or famine. It’s on our knees begging at the altar between her knees.
